RMS recognizes what the aircraft need in order to have a viable future and will be upgrading/modernizing them in order to improve flight safety, increase performance and enhance operational reliability before making them available to both military and non-military customers.
Already a world leader in all aspects of support for the S61/H-3 series helicopter, RMS is well prepared for the work that lies ahead.
The fifteen CH-124’s will complement RMS’s current fleet of eight civilian S61’s and allow for expansion of their existing aircraft leasing/sale and Total Aircraft Support (TAS) programs.
Spare Parts Inventory
The acquisition includes a significant inventory of parts, tooling and equipment which, when added to RMS’s already comprehensive stock, will contribute extensively to the TAS program included with each aircraft delivery.
RMS recognizes that many Canadian companies have equipment, systems and modifications already available or nearing availability to the global aerospace market that could be applied to their modernization program and looks forward to working with any company whose participation adds Canadian content to the finished product.
The S61/H-3 has been, and continues to be, exceedingly popular with both military and civilian operations worldwide, so not surprisingly, RMS is already receiving interest from eligible foreign parties.
